Article 207Special Provision for Injury Caused by Multiple Attackers

第二百七条(同時傷害の特例)

When two or more persons assault another person causing injury and it is impossible to know the relative extent of the injury caused by each individual offender or which offender caused the injury, the offenders are dealt with as co-principals even though they did not act in concert.

二人以上で暴行を加えて人を傷害した場合において、それぞれの暴行による傷害の軽重を知ることができず、又はその傷害を生じさせた者を知ることができないときは、共同して実行した者でなくても、共犯の例による。
